I've heard some schools are reintroducing it now, but that doesn't help those that never learned.

I've never once encountered such a book. The only times I see cursive are stuff from older relatives, and they all write differently to each other so it's just a matter of familiarity, and on headings or labels trying to look fancy.
Sometimes it comes up in old stuff for academic or personal interests but "knowing cursive" is often secondary to understanding those. Letters or papers intended for others are often perfectly legible, personal notes are a total mixed bag. (Looking at you, Charles Darwin.)
